I'm starting to look at this subject.  On the commercial side there is 
OWL and MFC.  On the dj side there seems to be sword and tvision.  
There are also a few others that I've pulled off the web.  They all 
have one common feature ... I get stuck.  The header files depending 
on which one I pick have so many basic typos that I'm certain to be 
missing a BASIC step.  Also I do not know what I'm doing which does 
not help.

     What is the best to start with on the dj side tvison or sword?  I 
guess I need a cook book to boot me in the right direction so that I 
can pick up on the subject.

     Another point that has me really messed up is make files.  There 
is in the dj package a make and this is to do with generation of 
documentation (*.inf).  There seems to be something else even more 
mysterious lurking in the wood work called make for doing not at all 
sure what once I get into MFC type subject.

     Any clarification would be of great help.

          Regards Ian.
